Ephesians 4:22–32

²²You took off ^wxyour former way of life, ^ythe old self ^zathat is corrupted by deceitful desires; ²³you are being renewed ^bin the spirit ^cof your minds; ²⁴you put on ^dethe new self, the one created ^faccording to God’s likeness ^gin righteousness and purity of the truth.

²⁵Since you put away ^hlying, Speak the truth, each one to his neighbor, ^ijbecause we are members of one another. ²⁶Be angry and do not sin. ^klDon’t let the sun go down on your anger, ²⁷and don’t give the Devil an opportunity. ²⁸The thief must no longer steal. Instead, he must do honest work with his own hands, so that he has something to share ^mwith anyone in need. ²⁹No foul language is to come from your mouth, but only what is good for building up someone in need, ⁿso that it gives grace to those who hear. ³⁰And don’t grieve God’s Holy Spirit. ^oYou were sealed by Him ^pfor the day of redemption. ^q31All bitterness, anger and wrath, shouting and slander must be removed from you, along with all malice. ³²And be kind ^rand compassionate ^sto one another, forgiving ^tone another, just as God also forgave you ^uin Christ.
